The Biblical Illustrator - Isaiah 1:1

Isaiah 1:1The vision of Isaiah the son of AmozIsaiah the son of AmozThis is not Amos the inspired herdsman.It is his glory simply that he was the father of Isaiah. Like many another he lives in the reflected glory of his offspring. The next best thing to being a great man is to be the father of one. (S. Horton.)Isaiah’s fatherThe rabbis represent his father Amoz as having been a brother of King Amaziah; but, at any rate, if we may judge from his illustrious son’s name, which means “salvation is... read more

Isaiah 1:2-31Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the Lord hath spokenGod finds vindication in natureI well remember two funerals going out of my house within a few brief months during my residence in London.There were cards sent by post and left at the door, in all kindliness; but one dark night when my grief overwhelmed me I looked at some of the cards and could find no vibration of sympathy there. I had not felt the touch of the hand that sent them. I went out into the storm that... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Isaiah 1:3

Isaiah 1:3The ox knoweth his owner . . . but Israel doth not knowIsaiah’s messageWhat does Isaiah teach about God?A prophet of his times had much to do in clearing the minds of the people from the confusion, or something worse, into which, as the history shows, the Jews were only too prone to fall. They were surrounded by idolatrous nations, and there was a danger that they might regard Jehovah as though He were like these gods of the nations. Even when they did not sink to this level they were... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Isaiah 1:1

Isa 1:1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah. Ver. 1. The vision of Isaiah. ] That which was not unfitly affirmed of a modern expositor, a that his commentaries on this prophecy of Isaiah are mole parvi, eruditione mangni, small in bulk, but great in worth, may much more fitly be spoken of the prophecy itself, which is aureus quantivis precii libellus, worth its weight in gold.

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Isaiah 1:2

Isa 1:2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me. Ver. 2. Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth. ] Exordium patheticum! Moses-like, he calleth heaven and earth, brutas illas mutasque creaturas, to record against God’s rebels, whose stupendous stupidity is hereby taxed. Deuteronomy 4:26 ; Deuteronomy 30:19 ; Deu 31:28 Heaven and earth do hear and obey God’s voice, for "they are all his... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Isaiah 1:3

Isa 1:3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: [but] Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. Ver. 3. The ox knoweth his owner. ] Yea, helpeth him; whence these creatures are called iumenta a iuvando, and the ass hath his name in Greek a from his usefulness. Yea, the most savage creatures will be at the beck and check of those that feed them. Disobedience, therefore, is against the principles of nature, and God’s rebels fall below the stirrup of reason, yea, of... read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - Isaiah 1:1

The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.Vision — Or, the visions; the word being here collectively used: the sense is, this is the book of the visions or prophecies. As prophets were called Seers, 1 Samuel 9:9, so prophecies are called visions, because they were as clearly and certainly represented to the prophets minds, as bodily objects are to mens eyes.Saw — Foresaw and foretold.
